Owner/Operator Hair Stylist--continuing to work in a profession I enjoy--35 years.

Whenever I am asked where I grew up, I always answer, "Mayberry." Luckily, growing up in Oxford in the 1950's and 60's was like scenes straight out of Mayberry, and I've always been proud to call Oxford home.

My career brought me to Raleigh almost forty years ago, and I'm still here trying to make everyone beautiful.

Without children of my own, I have doted on my four nephews for over thirty years and now on my four little great-nieces and nephews (all under the age of four). They seem to get all of my affection and most of my money.

My passions in life are traveling, music, beautiful things (art and antiques), major league baseball, and anywhere near the water, especially Nags Head and the Outer Banks area.

Because of my solid foundation in Oxford and great friends and mentors here in Raleigh, I am truly fortunate to have a healthy, happy, fulfilled life now.
